Just for s**ts and giggles I spent $40 on a 4GB Touch Screen Player (Which after I got it and was able to do more research on it, I found it to be a Onda VX858 knock off...) Cough anyone that's a regular to this site should know the fun involved with that.

After wards the player worked amazingly, the only problem was that once I was around 2GB on the player and tried to load another file the player would to one of 2 things without fail. Either Lock Up, or Lose power, either of which I had to take my ear-ring out to poke the annoying reset button. It was odd though because windows showed 3.7GB as the Capacity, but what really got me is in the firmware that came included it showed I had "37xxMB / 1975MB" (Free / Capacity) ????

It's a RockChip 2608a Based player with Hynix Flash Memory and some band of Firmware chip that I have no clue about...

The card (Mainboard) is a
TS568 2.8TFT V2.0
20071115 TANG

I attempted to use nearly all the Firmwares I could find and now everything results the same....
X-AXIS Flip Backlight flicker...
Also whats more interesting with other firmwares I can only format to 1.98GB

The player still "Works" perse but now is a an annoyance to use, and I can't even play videos on it and have it display correctly (Which was the significant factor in my original purchase.)

So if anyone thinks this falls in the category... Let me know, I am waiting for a resolution (requested proper Firmware for my player.)

If I can't get the situation solved I will be sure to Leave the sellers name...

As a side note: In general I would stay away from any Rockchip RK2608A based players since there are so many RK2706 based players and Ingenic Players (I personally think the Ingenic JZ47xx handles video better than the RK2706).

I Attempted to contact the seller as said, he sent me a program package that included an AMV comverter and such, that told me alone that the package was not intended for my player since it runs (*cough* ran) on XviD.

He suggested a small refund but since I can't use the player now I want to see if I can get a full refund from him.

I am currently working through PayPals claim processing and will keep people posted on how that works out for me, and also after reviewing the petition this is not the first time this seller has sold a Memory hacked player

yt-technology

I will keep posted on the results of my claim.

thanks DarkAngel

good luck in getting the money back and when you do come back here and we will direct you to ome much better players that will have more up to date tech for not much more cash

The auction (exactly the seller) was deleted (banned) by ebay while the deal was still not completed... unfortunately I paid too quick
So now I'm waiting for response of the seller - I told him to take back the player because of the well known failures (I bought the player with the backstabbing 4 screws at the corners...) The auction was deleted so I can't post the link anymore... the name of the seller is: tst-handel.

Player Details:
corp.: Tianshun
ID: TS2716
8GB = 4GB in the end
seems to be a clone of the Ramos RM970 (like I found in an other posting)

Hope this will have a good end for me.... now I'm ogling with MP4Nation....
Or does anybody has a good advice for a german seller for me???

Hi Caesaja,

Sorry to hear about your ordeal.
I would recommend filing a DISPUTE with PayPal. Now that he's been banned and such, you would probably have a higher chance of winning the dispute and getting a refund for it. Also, it will be a good way to get the seller to reply back - when it comes to money and refunds I'm sure he'll reply pretty quickly!

Just signed the petition. My player arrived by US Postal Service, so I am considering submitting the case to the Postal Inspector. Additionally, the seller misstated facts on the customs manifest, so I am considering a complaint to US Customs. Has anyone else tried these avenues? If so, any success?

"of course i complained to EBay (no response!!) and raised a claim with paypal.
my good news is that i WON!! wohooo!!!
Yes paypal found in my favor of me..."

WOW, you must be the first on the planet to be acknowledged by paypal to even exist other than for purpose of extracting money from you. They are not subject to any rules and not answerable to any authority.

Ebay just don't care as long as they are getting their cut. Oh, and they also own paypal. What a surprise.

i bought 2 x 8 GB Touch players from a seller by the name of MERCIFLY,
http://myworld.ebay.ca/mercifly
the players were in fact hacked and both were 4 GB.Told me he would refund but got nothing, filed dispute with paypal and its still unresolved.
